Why the clip board?

now the following photos we thought were ca 1924-25 in Bienfait area, but since this locomotive was built in Sept 1945, now we know it isn't.
Now we know this locomotive was in Kenora in 1959, so is this a mine etc in Kenora area? We know Mr. Starling Morris was in Kingston ON area.

and had 70-inch drivers and 20×28-inch cylinders
